What can they cause? By interfering with blood flow, they may present with swelling, pain, or changes in a limb, among other signs that depend on the affected location.

Related factors: they are associated with prolonged immobility, clotting disorders, and problems of the veins or arteries.

Specialists involved: their evaluation falls to the angiologist and the vascular surgeon, and in certain cases to the cardiovascular and thoracic surgeon or the general surgeon. Given their relationship to circulation, in the face of suggestive symptoms the prudent course is to seek prompt professional care.
